The New York Knicks were crushed by the vaunted Charlotte Hornets today, 110-82. It is the Knicks 15th loss in a row, dropping their NBA worst record to 5-35.
Even with Carmelo Anthony out, and J.R. Smith and Iman Shumpert traded, this was an embarrassment. It is games like these that make people not want to watch the Knicks anymore. Charles Barkley doesn't want to watch the Knicks. The New York Times reassigned its Knicks beat reporter, who now covers other sporting events under the paper's "Not the Knicks" channel. But most of all, fans don't want to watch the Knicks anymore.
The picture above was taken during today's aforementioned matchup against the Hornets in Madison Square Garden. It looks like three people decided to sit courtside. Three. According to Darren Rovell, these seats run for $3,300 a pop. But even in arenas of some of the worst teams in the NBA, you rarely see these premium seats vacant like this. If there is a picture that better sums up the Knicks dismal season, we'd be hard pressed to find it.
